equilibria of the reaction of molybdenum(vi) with l-aspartic acid (asp) and l- glutamic acid(glu) have been studied by spectrophotometric measurements in mixed solvent systems at an ionicstrength of 0.2 mol/dm3 sodium perchlorate, employed (15, 20, 25, 30± 0.1°c) at ph ranges of 3.2to 5.5 with a high ratio of ligand to metal. the stability constants of the complexes and theresulting free energy...

the acidity constants of some amino acids (am) were determined by potentiometric ph titration. the stability constants of the 1:1 complexes formed between m2+: ca2+, mg2+, mn2+, co2+, ni2+, cu2+ or zn2+ and am2-, were determined by potentiometric ph titration in aqueous solution (i = 0.1 m, nano3, 25°c). the order of the stability constants was reported. it is shown that the stability of the bi...

1. The conductivities of aqueous solutions of glycine, d,l-valine, and l-asparagine have been determined, and comparisons have been made with similar data reported in the literature. 2. On the basis of certain theoretical considerations, calculations of the expected conductivities of aqueous solutions of glycine, asparagine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid have been made and these data have be...

In a study of minimal requirements for certain lactobacilli, Leuconostoc dextranicum 8086 was observed to require either aspartic acid or threonine for growth in a particular medium. Since such an observation does not allow specific conclusions regarding the relationship of these two amino acids, a study of this interrelationship in lactobacilli in which aspartic acid biosynthesis can be contro...

The multiconformational landscape of the proteogenic amino acid aspartic acid, the simplest amino acid with two carboxylic groups, has been explored for the first time in the gas phase. Solid aspartic acid (m.p. > 300 degrees C) was vaporized by laser ablation and expanded in a supersonic jet where rotational spectra of various conformers were obtained by Fourier transform microwave spectroscop...

Cairomycin B in the fermentation broths of Streptomyces sp. strain AS-C-19 accompanied cairomycin A and cairomycin C. The cairomycins are peptides with potent activity against gram-positive bacteria. On acid hydrolysis, cairomycin A yielded valine and aspartic acid, whereas cairomycin C yielded lysine, glycine, valine, leucine, and aspartic acid, as identified by paper and gas chromatography. T...

Sequence analysis of membrane-bound glycerolipid acyltransferases revealed that proteins from the bacterial, plant, and animal kingdoms share a highly conserved domain containing invariant histidine and aspartic acid residues separated by four less conserved residues in an HX4D configuration. We investigated the role of the invariant histidine residue in acyltransferase catalysis by site-direct...
